I'm sure there has been worse, but this was as bad of a job of losing on purpose I've ever seen.

They should lose a draft pick, at a minimum.

But Peterson should be banned for a year for that. That's such dogshit.

As I keep telling you, the decision may have come from management. The more I think about it, the more I surmise it was a management call.

Losing a draft pick effects the franchise. That's what they deserve. And not a 5th+ rounder.

Peterson and/or the Eagles management cheated the NFL. Fucking trash.

There is no difference between what the Eagles did tonight and a team resting its starters after clinching a bye or something. Zero difference. In both cases you are tinkering with said game based on the future. What would be wrong is if you used your time based on what some other team (the Giants) needed vs what you need. Which is to see what you got.

Exactly. Don't hear people bitching about the Steelers for sitting starters. Browns win and in and Dolphins are out. Happens every year. Every year.

Not to mention, if Hurts had gotten injured seriously in the 4th quarter on a wet, muddy field against a strong DL, everybody would have said Pederson's an idiot for risking the QB of the future in a meaningless game. Sissy Giants' fans just need to shut up. Crying because their 6-10 team is out of the playoffs? Get real. Eagles don't have to field the team that Giants fans want them to field.

Not to mention that Hurts had completed less than a third of his passes for under 100 yards through three quarters. If he couldn’t run they’d have been doing nothing on offense. Hell one of their drives only succeeded because of the refs. It’s not like he was putting up HOF numbers....

The Steelers won their first 11 games so they earned the right to sit starters. To me what the Eagles did yesterday compromised the integrity of the sport. They sat 10 or 11 starters yet they have no game next week. Then you go for it on 4th down and 4 when you had an easy chance to tie the game? Then you pull Hurts for a journeymen 3rd stringer late in the game? All of it made no sense other then Petersen was trying to secure the best draft pick for the Eagles. Sorry I just can't get behind it.

Then we have a QB w/ one leg out there that gets sacked if you blow on him. He can't drive the ball. I have had enough of the Smith lovefest. And it's nothing against Alex cause he is just an outstanding guy, but he should not be out there.

After YEARS of our team making shithead decisions like what the Eagles did, for once I'm glad to be on the better end of those decisions.

F the Eagles. They made a terrible decision and I'm glad we benefited from it. They already got a circus situation with their QB position, which I'm pretty sure may have influenced Pederson's decision.
